His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Typically, following such a major surgery, it wouldn’t be uncommon for someone to be unconscious for about ten days.

But Thaddeus was no ordinary man. A former Special Forces operator, his physical condition far exceeded that of the average person. So, on the fourth day, he woke up.

“Mr. Thaddeus! Mr. Thaddeus! Mr. Thaddeus! Mr. Thaddeus!”

The incessant noise was enough to drive anyone crazy.

Struggling, Thaddeus lifted his heavy eyelids, his vision gradually clearing from a blur.

The first thing he saw was the face of Gordon, his once full beard now rough and unkempt, his face visibly thinner.

“Mr. Thaddeus is awake. Mr. Thaddeus is awake!”

Overcome with excitement, Gordon frantically rang the bell by the bedside.

“You sound like you’re calling spirits from the dead. You could wake the dead with that noise,” Thaddeus grumbled, his ears still ringing and his head still foggy. “Where am I?”

“You’re in the hospital, of course! You’ve been through a dramatic ordeal,” Gordon replied, tears welling in his eyes as he remembered the traumatic events of the past few days.

“Where’s Evadne?”

Much to everyone’s surprise, Thaddeus seemed less concerned with his own wellbeing and more worried about Evadne’s safety.

The last thing he remembered was a thug raising a metal rod, poised to strike Evadne.

What happened after that, he had no idea.

Did he manage to protect her? And if he didn’t, he would rather be dead!

Gordon hastily reassured him, “She’s fine! She’s perfectly fine! You saved Mrs. Abernathy, don’t worry!”

But Thaddeus wasn’t convinced.

Just then, the medical team and the attending physician rushed into the room, helping Gordon to keep Thaddeus under control. “Where’s Evadne? I need to see Evadne!”

Thaddeus suddenly sat up in bed, his thin lips trembling, his eyes turning red.

His emotions were clearly running high.

“Mr. Thaddeus, please, can you rest first? Once you’re better, we’ll go see Mrs. Abernathy. Look at yourself right now.”

“I want to see Evadne, now!”

Thaddeus didn’t know what was happening to him. Every nerve in his body was on edge, his mind agitated like a boiling pot, his heart pounding so hard he felt as if it would burst out of his chest.

Just as everyone was at a loss for what to do, a cool, melodious voice suddenly broke the silence.

“Thaddeus! Are you a three–year–old child? Stop this nonsense!”

The room immediately fell silent.

Standing in the doorway, Evadne narrowed her eyes in disapproval. She was not smiling, yet she was as beautiful as a timeless statue in a museum.

“Mrs. Abernathy!” Gordon greeted her with a relieved smile.

“Evadne!” Thaddeus‘ eyes were filled with warmth, but his hands trembled even more.

At that moment, with his head wrapped in bandages and gauze, resembling an apple in a fruit basket, and those affectionate eyes, he seemed almost comical.
